Here's a sample rendering: http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=613
Attached is a screenshot from Finale
This remains one of the few shortcomings in MuseScore for which I have yet to find an acceptable workaround. Does anybody know of any way to fake the broken ties in a way that looks correct? I'd like to be able to create my final engravings using MuseScore rather than Finale, but I do not want to publish sheet music with ties running through key/time signatures.

In Sibelius and Finale, instead of being drawn "through" a key signature or time signature change, slurs and ties break, essentially being blocked a white rectangle surrounding the key or time signature. Maybe a little esoteric for the 3.0 smart layout effort, but this is pretty much the only good solution to an ugly overlap.
As a fix for this most probably is "just" the rendering and won't change ther file format, it might even be possible to fix it for 2.0.4 too?

Came up again in #175106: Slur break under time signature
OS: Windows 10 (10.0), Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 3.6.2.548021803, revision: 3224f34
Still an issue in the latest version.
Indeed. Workaround that didn't exiat originally is to add an opaque white graphic at a stacking order that covers the tie but not another elements. A little testing suggests 1100 is good.
